Topic: "From My Heart"
I cannot remember a time I was not thinking about music in some form or have a tune of my own floating around in my head. Being an energetic and enthusiastic young child I would spend my days, much to my mother’s malcontent, singing just about anything you could think of at the top of my lungs and getting on her very last nerve, which by the way managed to really increase my young vocabulary. This is a song about that and how it was not such a bad problem to have after all.
From My Heart By Jeff Gilpin
February 26th, 2008
Chorus
You [D]know I could have [A]sworn
That on the [D]day that I was [A]born
I didn't [D]cry a song was [A]torn
From my [Bm]heart
From my [G]heart
From my [A]heart
Verse 1
[Bm]I've been singing since I could re[D]member
Not [G]always good but [D]always full of [A]joy
[Bm]Being shushed since I was a [D]kinder
For [G]being such a loud little [A]boy
Chorus
Be[D]fore too [A]long
I'm be [D]humming another [A]song
Because the [D]music was [A]strong
In my [Bm]heart
In my [G]heart
In my [A]heart
Verse 2
[Bm]There've been days that weren't so [D]happy
[G]Felt like my [D]heart had broke in[A]to
[Bm]But even that didn't [D]stop me
[G]Still singing songs when I was [A]blue
Chorus
I'd [D]sing when I was [A]sad
In[D]stead of getting [A]mad
[D]Music was what I [A]had
In my [Bm]heart
In my [G]heart
In my [A]heart
Verse 3
[Bm]I never knew quite what [D]I had
A [G]power that would [D]always get me [A]through
[Bm]Nothing ever could hurt [D]me bad
[G]Because I always [A]knew
Chorus
[D]To sing my [A]song
And I'd [D]keep on going [A]strong
Now the [D]music's lived so [A]long
In my [Bm]heart
In my [G]heart
In my [A]heart
Verse 4
[Bm]Even now I still can [D]get away
And [G]try to funnel [D]out what I [A]can
[Bm]Capture what's floating in my [D]head today
Like [G]listening to my private [A]band
Chorus
And they [D]play my [A]song
As I [D]try and play a[A]long
Singing [D]loud and singing [A]strong
Straight from the [Bm]heart
From my [G]heart
With all my [A]heart [D]
